Corresponding e-mail: [email protected] I. INTRODUCTION Bolpur Municipality of Bolpur-Sriniketan C.D. Block in Birbhum District of West Bengal, India, first emerged as an important municipal town on 12th June’1950. Historically, Bolpur was always in limelight during late British colonial period in undivided Bengal and it only after Maharshi’s (Maharshi Debendranath Tagore, father of Kaviguru Rabindranath Tagore) foundation of Santiniketan (the abode of peace) it slowly flourished as tourist destination center in Indian Tourist Map. Before the making of Santiniketan, Bolpur was just known as an unimportant railway station along the loop-line tract of Eastern Railways. But in due course of time, with increase in population and emergence of Bolpur as the most important trading center of its hinterlands like Nanoor, Sriniketan etc. it became the focal center of the gram Panchayats of today’s Bolpur-Sriniketan C.D. Block areas. Civic amenities also have been going through enormous of changes in response to transportation and communication also. At present, this Grade-III municipal town (as per the standard of Govt. of W.B.) is till now serving as the gateway of and the inseparable auxiliary serving town to Santiniketan Heritage Complex, the most promisingly emerging international tourist destination. But any traditional developmental programmes implemented in an unplanned or haphazard growth of markets or housing areas can also bring some adverse environmental effects such as poor quality of civil amenities can bring uncomfortable living standard. For instance, increasing problem of the scarcity of water during dry period sustained even after the successful implementation and execution of the PHE projects. On the other hand, the awkward waterlogging conditions not only during heavy spells but also persisting even during very little amount of rain in different wards of this municipal area. To find out these emerging issues and to combat these water-related urban problems of Bolpur Municipal area, a detailed ward- wise field survey has been done by the students of Semester-V (Honours) of 2018-19 of Department of Geography of Sambhu Nath College, Labpur, Birbhum in West Bengal. Though the period of this survey was too short to be completely done, the students have tried their level best to observe, understand, analyzed the present water related issues and have put forth some propositions as much as they could. The entire field word has been divided into three sections which are discussed next. Hypothesis: I. Water scarcity and Water logging are common natural phenomenon in every municipal area of Birbhum district in West Bengal, India (H˳). II. Water scarcity and Water logging are not common natural phenomenon and anthropogenic factors are mainly responsible for those in every municipal area of Birbhum district in West Bengal, India (H₁). Objectives: Every field study starts with some objectives as expected and here the following objectives are – (i) To understand the seasonal scarcity of potable water along with annual waterlogging problems since last three census decades in Bolpur Municipality. (ii) To search for the factors working behind the waterlogging problems(s) in Bolpur Municipality area. (iii) To prepare a multi-dimensional plan to check the waterlogging and to cater the water surplus water of rainy season to check the scarcity of water in Bolpur Municipal area in Birbhum district of West Bengal. 64 | IJREAMV05I1260032 DOI : 10.35291/2454-9150.2020.0169 © 2020, IJREAM All Rights Reserved. International Journal for Research in Engineering Application & Management (IJREAM) ISSN : 2454-9150 Vol-05, Issue-12, Mar 2020 II. METHODOLOGY Every geographic field survey has its own methodological perspectives. In this survey we have followed the below mentioned methods to collect, store, process, analyze, interpret the data related to the selected topic through hierarchical processes- I. Pre-Field: Relevant and official Cadastral Maps from Office of Bolpur Municipality, SOI Toposheet (No.73 or F45D10) and Satellite imageries (including LISS-III of 2008, 2012, 2016 and DEM of 2015) and older published maps from different books, journals (both offline and online) have been collected and been minutely studied georeferencing them with the help of QGIS ver. 3.8.3. Germin GPS has been used to avoid RMS error of the rectified raster images of Bolpur municipal area and its surroundings. Slope Map with the help of DEM was prepared to calculate the average slope of the area. Previous Literatures related to the topic has been studied in detail. Questionnaires were prepared to get the public perceptions on water scarcity and water-logging problems in all wards of Bolpur Municipality area. II. Field: Sample Survey Stations were selected (mainly on the basis of permanent structures like primary school, road junctions, hospital ect.) after dividing the entire Municipality into four quadrants i.e. NE, SE, SW and NW. Small groups of 4-5 students started surveying quadrant-wise allotted wards with Toposheet, Satellite image, Slope map and questionnaire maintaining the framework of the field-survey. Randomly at least 30 households were surveyed where water-logging persists predominantly. Different sizes and shapes of household and surface water draining drains or nalas were observed, sometimes measured (when needed) and snapped for future analysis with coordinates of each. Road conditions were verified with the data obtained from PWD section of Bolpur Municipality Office, and waste- disposal management of each ward was surveyed in detail. Conditions and number of municipal water-taps were evaluated and counted in compliance with the data obtained from PHE section of Bolpur Municipality Office. All the large water tanks were observed and their functioning was also recorded in datasheet. III. Post-Field: All sub-topic-wise data and information were collected and sorted, filtered and arranged according the need for processing and analysis. Window Excel 2007 was used for tabulation of the collected data and different statistical techniques like central tendencies, standard deviation, Karl Pearson’s correlation-coefficient etc. were applied to formulate the data and to get the ultimate result. With the help of QGIS (ver. above 3.0) open source software, the spatio-temporal changes of the LULC of the Bolpur Municipality was analyzed and cross-checked with the statistical result of the ground data. Revisiting of the sites was done when any kind of anomaly in data was found. Finally, interpretation was done. III. LITERARURE REVIEW Literature review is the most essential part of any field survey as the previous works on the said topic helps the surveyor to update or modify and apply the data collected according to the objectives of field study. The following works on Bolpur Municipality of Birbhum District which have been studied to get sufficient previous knowledge regarding the issues concerned. In 1997, SSDA of Birbhum District in West Bengal published a detailed report on Bolpur-Sriniketan Block of Birbhum District describing the Structure of Bolpur Municipality, its area, roads, civic amenities and past conditions. It was report on land use and development control plan. In a published article entitled ‘Urbanisation And Sustainable Development: An Environmental Study of Bolpur Town Near Tagore's Santiniketan, West Bengal, India 2010’ the socio-economic status of Bolpur Municipality was dealt by Dr. P. Basu Roy of Alipurduar College of West Bengal where the main theme was the environmental problems and its causes in Bolpur Municipality. In 2013, another official task after the SSDA was taken up by the BAE and Statistics of Birbhum district, Suri, Birbhum which was mainly dealt with the population facts of Bolpur Municipality and its demographic details in the form of District Census Handbook. Again, in May, 2016, the SSDA, Birbhum of West Bengal published a report on ‘Revised Land Use & Development Control Plan-2025 For Sriniketan–Santiniketan Planning Area’ where it dealt with the Climate, Water Supply, Soil types of Bolpur Municipality and Future Conditions of Bolpur And Santiniketan Block. Another major work has been reviewed i.e. ‘The Nature of Solid Waste Disposal in Bolpur 65 | IJREAMV05I1260032 DOI : 10.35291/2454-9150.2020.0169 © 2020, IJREAM All Rights Reserved.

  • Rabindranath Tagore's Model of Rural Reconstruction: a Review
    [ VOLUME 5 I ISSUE 4 I OCT.– DEC. 2018] E ISSN 2348 –1269, PRINT ISSN 2349-5138 Rabindranath Tagore’s Model of Rural Reconstruction: A review Dr. Madhumita Chattopadhyay Assistant Professor in English, B.Ed. Department, Gobardanga Hindu College (affiliated to West Bengal State University), P.O. Khantura, Dist- 24 Parganas North, West Bengal, PIN – 743273. Received: July 07, 2018 Accepted: August 17, 2018 ABSTRACT Rabindranath Tagore’s unique venture on rural reconstruction at Silaidaha-Patisar and at Sriniketan was a pioneering work carried out by him with the motto of the wholesome development of the community life of village people through education, training, healthcare, sanitation, modern and scientific agricultural production, revival of traditional arts and crafts and organizing fairs and festivities in daily life. He believed that through self-help, self-initiation and self-reliance, village people will be able to help each other in their cooperative living and become able to prepare the ground work for building the nation as an independent country in the true sense. His model of rural reconstruction is the torch-bearer of so many projects in independent India. His principles associated with this programme are still relevant in the present day world, but is not out of criticism. The need is to make critical analysis and throw new lights on this esteemed model so that new programmes can be undertaken based on this to achieve ‘life in its completeness’ among rural population in India. Keywords: Rural reconstruction, cooperative effort, community development. Introduction Rathindranath Tagore once said, his father was “a poet who was an indefatigable man of action” and “his greatest poem is the life he has lived”.

UGC NET in Geography, Rajiv Gandhi National Junior Research Fellow and Asst. Teacher Ahiran Hemangini Vidyayatan High school., M.A, NET Abstract: In this paper we discuss the human resource development of Birbhum District. The data have been collected from District Statistical Handbook, District census report of 2001 and District Human Development Report 2009.A large part of the Birbhum District is still backward with respect to human resource development. Aim of this paper is to study the cause of the backwardness of this district. “HRD is the process of determining the optimum methods of developing and improving the human resources of an organization and the systematic improvement of the performance of employees through training, education and development and leadership for the mutual attainment of organizational and personal goals” (Smith). HRD is an important topic of present time. It is considered by management professionals, as sub discipline of Human Resource Management( HRM), but many researchers have, broadened the scope and integrated the concept of HRD by looking it from socioeconomic angle and giving it other dimension such as physical, intellectual, psychological, social, political, moral and spiritual development. I. Introduction: Human Resource Development is the ultimate goal of National Development. HRD is the process of increasing the knowledge, the skills, and the capacities of all the people in a society.
